Nelson and Cripps are available for West Coast, probably not the best for Mutimers JS

Yeah, Mutimer has pretty much been keeping Crippa's spot warm
Where was this when everyone was asking about his JS the last week and a half? :P

Yeah this would have been extremely helpful to know haha, although probably should have looked into it myself

Fwiw this is why I didn't get him though, a lot of Iggs supporters were unsure so I grabbed Berry at 170k instead (and very happy I did). If Mutimer keeps his spot this week though (assuming others come in), then that'd be good for those that brought him in.

Personally, I'm praying for Fisher and Parsons to hold their spots :P (and an Eddy return ofc)

Mat0369

Fisher will hold his spot this week.

Now tell me Pickett will be back as well, pretty please

I didn't look at the VFL stats yet so I can't tell you. I doubt it though. I don't think we make any changes unless we have injuries this week.

It doesn't have to be true, I just want you to say it.

I warned people his JS wasn't good and said Berry was a much better option :P

As for Pickett, who really cares if he comes back? Can't get enough of those 20's and 30's? I'm hopefully dumping him this week finally

If he can score 20s and 30s he'll still make a few extra thousand dollars ;D (at least in his first week back anyway)

And 30 points is better than a donut, depending on when he does play (if at all) :P

Trading him for someone who will actually make money and score more is even better

Eddy, Strnadica and Hibberd are holds for me because they all offer benefits to me, but this bloke is gone!

I'll probably trade him during the byes assuming he isn't back by then. Haven't really needed to trade him so far though, as I've had a maxed out rookie every other week I've wanted to upgrade/downgrade. Been subbing him with like Taranto and Balic throughout the season in order to cover outs, so been useful in that respect aha. Just can't stand the thought of trading him for like 30k :P

RaisyDaisy

Yeah I hear you, but just have to put it down as a correctional trade I guess

His DPP was actually handy to swing Balic around, but seeing as I plan on trading Barrett before his bye I'll trade Pickett now, meaning I get rid of both Rd11 rookies which I need to do

Making any upgrades this week, or storing a bit in the kitty?

Hoping to do Pickett to Myers and Touk to Heeney this week, but if Parsons gets dropped I'll probably have to go a week early on Stewart and grab him for Parsons instead

Ah ok, so don't need much cash for the Touk upgrade then.
